Sky Girls Review and New Daily Anime Releases

Sky girls looks to be a good mecha kind of movie but not really giant robots but a kind of exo-skeleton flying jet robot. Think Aliens power loader (where Ripley fights the queen alien at the end of the movie) with wings and can fly. Now the world after fighting off some kind of nano alien creatures many times and eventually using nukes to destroy them caused catastrophe for the earth and all but wiped out men of fighting age between 18 and 40... The army is now working on a new prototype for the war against the now destroyed (but maybe not really) aliens. The series starts by introducing us to some of the recruits the military is recruiting to be test pilots for this new weapon and their decisions to join or not.

This series is looking to be a good one I highly recommend this series to put on your watch list as I am sure this will offer a lot just based on the effort to create the characters in episode one. Lets hope they keep up the good work.

The release for this was posted in yesterdays blog so look for the link there.

Umisho New Series Review and Daily New Anime Releases

Umisho is a great fun new comedy/ecchi show. With only one episode out this is just my first impression but it looks to be a fun one worth watching. (If your a fan of ecchi humor that is) The story is about a boy who manages the local school swimming team but he can't swim himself due to an incident as a kid where he was attacked by a mermaid. And a mysterious new girl who arrives from okinawa on a raft house which she lives on with her dad. The new girl is not a very modest or shy person and during her arrival the swim team meets her and she shows them her "skill" after which the swim team captain decides to recruit her. She seems to have amazing swimming skills but a style that is very unorthodox. But she is like a fish. and geez it seems that the boy in the story and this new girl recognize each other from somewhere but can't seem to remember. (I wonder?)

Anyways it has a lot of partial nudity with no actual full on nudity but lots of partial breast shots. And plenty of girls in swimming suits and "boing" effects to go around. So if your a warm blooded male this series will definitely get the blood pumping. (live action spin off is most welcome.)

Here is the first episode;
Umisho . 1

Good-bye Shining Tears X Wind and Daily New Releases

Shining Tears X Wind has been a good friend along its journey. While not an outstanding anime with great character development and story continuity, it has been a fun action/harem type anime. With lots of strange love triangles and sudden changes in character. (One day our hero is ready to beat up everyone the next day he is trying to stop everyone from fighting.)
All of this started out because of some zero guy with one white and one black wing who has multiple personalities after being devoured by some evil force and killing his companions. But he reclaims himself and resurrects his fallen allies with his new found powers. But he now needs a new hero to stop the evil in the world and so he decides to enlist our hero as his proxy in the war. Of course I am summarizing quite a bit as the story is not that straightforward or clear but that's the basic gist of it.

Our heroes in this new world are called soul blader's because of their ability to draw out the hearts of others represented by a sword with unique powers. These swords have great abilities in fighting the darkness that is engulfing this world. So after many episodes of conflict and strange romantic interludes with elves, dwarfs and beast people we come to an end with a war against a elf gone dark-elf, at the loss of his sister he is driven mad and decides he will wipe clean this world and everyone in it. Our heroes must stop him so they set out on their final battle to save the world.

My thoughts and Today's New Anime Releases

As you may have guessed I am a big fan of anime and spend lots of time everyday scouring the net for the latest releases and subbing groups. After being a long time subbed watcher I sat down to watch some of the new anime-monday on sci-fi channel and almost lost my lunch at the dubbing done to some of my favorite series. The complete lack of actual talent used when dubbing is the single biggest reason for a lack of larger anime support. Anyone watching these anime would have to think the series quality is horrible with voice acting so drab and shallow. When will anime licensees realize that they have to get quality voice acting to really win over a larger audience base. As I sat and watched this I was thinking how I wished there was a subbed version playing instead I would rather be forced to read then listening to boring voice overs. Please someone wake up the American licensing companies and get them to find quality talent.

That's my anime rant for the day.

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai Review and Daily New Anime Releases

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai is the second season from the original story that take place some years in the future as they try to figure out what really happened in the old town. While only 1 episode is out if this follows the last season expect some creepy stories that will bend your mind and test your ability to accept the strange and unusual realities of this show.

It is definitely not for the faint of heart in the last season you were forced to watch children murdering and brutalizing each other. So far I have no idea what to expect from this new installment but expect lots of horror and gore.

Here is the first episode;
Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai . 1

And today new anime releases;
Shounen Onmyouji . 16
Rockman.EXE Beast+ . 1
Emily of New Moon . 1
